anything bigger than 18" looks like poop on a fox... saleens look better than cobras, but i'm not too much of a fan of black wheels, 18" chrome saleens would be my choice.

depends if it's dropped or not and what offset the wheels are, i'm guessing 265 would be a good size though.

i just through the twenty's out there i doubt i'll go that route but i'm kinda leaning towards the 03 cobras 18 inch in black. i love the way the 93 cobra r looks with the black rims but i hate the rims themselves. also i just shelled out a butt load of cash on a black interior swap and think the black rims would make the interior stand out that much more. oh ya black snake i know the guy who has the blue hatch the gt one not the lx. the lx is awful because it has what look like truck rims on it. also i was originally set on the saleens but i've never seen 18" 03 blacks on a fox and think it might be kind of different. also these rims are very similar in style. my car is lowered with sportline springs so 18x9 is about all i can go.

I got the 03's in chrome, but I've never seen them in black. I think you'll be clean with either the saleens or the 03's.

i don't know how 20's would look on a fox... but for those who don't know yet.... the 07 gt500 will come with 19's the 05/06 had 20's as an option and i did it on my 02. and i've never heard my car called rice.
